can you completely remove the power cable, and battery to stop it booting?

then try again without pressing the media button?

i've got an inspiron laptop too, and i wiped my media direct partition long ago...there's no option in my bios to disable the media direct button, but it's still worth having a look through yours to see if you can avoid this problem in the future.

the media direct os is on a seperate partition on the hard drive, invisible to windows - at least it was on my 3 year old inspiron 640m.

if you don't ever use it, i would suggest getting rid of it to avoid this happening again in the future. i wiped mine by using a linux liveCD and using gparted. this has the added benefit of reclaiming some hard drive space - i forget how much though.
